So much going at IndieCan this week

[indie at indiecan.com]

   Greetings Canadian emerging music fans!

   Recently posted and already busy, Episode 77 is largely behind the  
scenes at Canadian Music Week.  We?ll talk with The Cliks before they  
hit the stage at the Indies Awards and we also look forward to  
introducing you to The Good Lovelies who we met for the first time at  
CMW.  Our industry insider segment is a couple of excerpts from a  
panel of 360-marketing.  People in the know are talking about "brand  
alignment" for bands because record companies don?t have advertising  
and promotion budgets.  However, telecoms and junk-food manufactures  
do so prognosticators see our favorite CDs coming in a bag or potato  
chips sometime soon. Please have a listen to this weeks show and then  
weigh in on what you think this.  Are the monkeys now running the  
zoo?  Is this the dawn of great opportunity for indie bands?  Is this  
the biggest sell out you ever heard of?  Either way, after you?ve  
heard from the learned panel let us know on Myspace or Facebook.

   Toronto?s Reno is our feature artist this week and we have been  
looking forward to featuring this emerging act to you for some time.   
In Canada, their new record, ?Learning to Talk Human? comes out in  
April.  They will be talking about the secrets to their international  
success and why fans mean so much to them.  We also introduce Hue and  
The Reels as well as hearing from Dave Martel and Vesta Varro.

   Ellen Drake (THE BIG SCHMOOZE) is back and IndieCan was at the "How  
to Make It in the Music Business" seminar at Long & McQuade?s Toronto  
store.  It was great to see old friends and meet new ones.  Great work  
Ellen!

   IndieCan caught up with Raine Maida who was at The Phoneix Concert  
Theatre Monday night.  Commentary on the concert and live pics are  
coming soon.  Raine also had time to sit in with us at Redline  
Recorders for an upcoming ?live at IndieCan? episode we will share his  
music and thoughts on his career, his causes such as War Child Canada,  
his new life, his Our Lady Peace life, family life and why he?s proud  
to be Canadian.

   Also coming soon will be features with Alex Tintinalli, Vesta Varro  
and the latest plans for IndieWeek Toronto coming up this fall.

   Thanks for supporting Canadian indie and we look forward to your  
comments of this weeks show.
